The nature and boundaries of Quasi-Deities, Demigods, Titans, and Vestiges are all different in 5e.Iuz who was a demigod in 1e-3e is now classified a god in 5e.5e DMG page 11:"Quasi-deities have a divine origin, but they don't hear or answer prayers, grant spells to clerics, or control aspects of mortal life. They are still immensely powerful beings, and in theory they could ascend to godhood if they amassed enough worshipers. Quasi-deities fall into three subcategories: demigods, titans, and vestiges.Demigods are born from the union of a deity and a mortal being. They have some divine attributes, but their mortal parentage makes them the weakest quasi-deities.Titans are the divine creations of deities. They might be birthed from the union of two deities, manufactured on a divine forge, born from the blood spilled by a god, or otherwise brought about through divine will or substance.Vestiges are deities who have lost nearly all their worshipers and are considered dead, from a mortal perspective. Esoteric rituals can sometimes contact these beings and draw on their latent power."3e <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/130333/Deities-and-Demigods-3e?affiliate_id=17596" target="_blank">Deities and Demigods</a> Page 25:"Rank 0: Creatures of this rank are sometimes called quasi-deities or hero deities. Creatures that have a mortal and a deity as parents also fall into this category. These entities cannot grant spells, but are immortal and usually have one or more ability scores that are far above the norm for their species. They may have some worshipers. Ordinary mortals do not have a divine rank of 0. They lack a divine rank altogether.Rank 1–5: These entities, called demigods, are the weakest of the deities. A demigod can grant spells and perform a few deeds that are beyond mortal limits, such as hearing a grasshopper from a mile away."2e <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/116010/Legends--Lore-2e?affiliate_id=17596" target="_blank">Legends and Lore</a> Page 9:"DemigodsDemigods are the least powerful deities of any pantheon. Frequently, they are mortals who have earned divine through great deeds. "Page 10: "Granted Abilities: Demigods can grant any power or spell of up to 5th level to their worshippers and priests"1e <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/110198/Deities--Demigods-1e?affiliate_id=17596" target="_blank">Deities and Demigods</a> Page 9: "Clerics whose patrons are demigods (and not lesser or greater gods) will receive their 3rd through 5th level spells directly from their deity. A demigod cannot grant spells above 5th level, so a cleric of a demigod could never receive 6th or 7th level spells."1e <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/17392/World-of-Greyhawk-Fantasy-Game-Setting-1e?affiliate_id=17596" target="_blank">World of Greyhawk boxed set</a> originally introduced Quasi-Deities and specifically pegged them as not demigods.
